Summary
After a presentation from Oregon Dungeness Crab Commissioner Todd Whaley, the Curry County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously to draft a letter supporting the Oregon Coast Crab Association, reflecting local interest in commercial crab fisheries.
Todd Whaley, identified in the minutes as the Oregon Dungeness Crab Commissioner, presented information to the Curry County Board of Commissioners about the local crabbing association at the special meeting on Feb. 9, 2026. Following the presentation, Commissioner Patrick Hollinger moved to draft a letter in support of the Oregon Coast Crab Association; Commissioner Lynn Coker seconded the motion and it carried unanimously.
